Abstract
Numerical Simulation of flow field over a sharp and blunt nose cone bulbous heat shield are carried out. Software used for the simulation is ANSYS 19.2 student version. The Simulations are carried out in the Mach no. range 0.8 to 1.2 (transonic regime). Simulation results are analyzed in detail. Besides, Shock Strength on the heat shield for all the simulation results are obtained. Based on the studies, bulbous heat shield which gives least shock strength is recommended for the payload fairing configuration.
